This delicious Citrus Chicken Taco Bowl recipe is quick and easy to make and perfect for Taco Tuesday or a busy weeknight.
My love of tacos is strong, but my love of food bowls is stronger lately. Food bowls are the perfect way to use leftovers, to meal prep for lunches, and to reduce or eliminate the amount of gluten in meals, such as tacos.
Do you shop at Aldi? I shop at a number of different grocery stores depending on what I need, but Aldi is one of my favorites. In the meat department, they sell citrus chicken thighs that have become a staple in our house. For about $6 there’s enough for two nights when we use them in tacos, burritos, or bowls.
